Two women who were arrested after they were allegedly found in possession of drugs worth over N$100,000 were denied bail in the Keetmanshoop Magistrate’s Court on Monday.

A burial at Heroes' Acre, the country's official national shrine, is reserved for individuals who have been formally recognised as national heroes by the government.

Those who fought on the frontline of the battlefield, such as former PLAN combatant Ndeulikufa Kalomoh, recollected his fond memories of Sam Nujoma.

Kalomoh, whose combat name is Hakushinda, was 20 years old when he fled from Namibia into Angola to join the liberation struggle in 1974.

Namport's CEO, Andrew Kanime, says Founding President Sam Nujoma had a keen interest in the company's operations and had consistently made time to assess the progress of the ports.

During the Hardap Region's memorial service, former Minister of Poverty Eradication Zephania Kameeta has urged the Namibian nation to honour the late Founding President''s legacy by shunning tribalism.
